Help me pick a distro!
Sounds like you want Pop!_OS Though id just use APT. Apt and knowing how to google things will both have more packages and should be faster Ive used a couple GUI package managers but they always have weird, unfixable bugs. (though ive nto used Pop!, and people say almost all good things about it) Ive never had a distro break something with a update. And you dont want less updates. Less updates is bad, it means the kernal gets updated less, it means the base packages get updated less, it means less security updates. Bad Theres a difference between bugs and stability. You can have a perfectly stable OS with a thousand bugs and 1 bug that leaves a OS that constantly crashes there is no distro that can do what windows can do. theres just not. Even with wine and stuff like dxvk and whatever, no distro can succede in doing everything windows can do It sounds a lot like linux just isnt for you
I'm ready to use the terminal with commands similar to DOS if needed.
It's definitely an issue. If you're switching to Mac, you'll have to work around Apple's policies—it's just part of the downsides. MacOS is generally good, but Apple's decisions are the biggest headache.
